Abstract
A cover flap assembly is provided for a passage opening in a side wall of a vehicle situated above a folding top base. During the swivelling-out of a folding top deposited in an assigned folding top compartment, the cover flap can be changed from a covering position into an upright release position. The covering flap is in an operative connection with a carriage-type guiding device and extends in its upright release position in a sunk-in manner below the passage opening of the side wall.
